anyone used skype to dail to Japan and have a conversation with anyone there? Have thought about it several times but I guess I'm a bit shy to do it haha.

Any good / bad experience with skype?

well, if you have a friend from Japan who has Skype, you can call them when they're there. but, if you're going to call a land line there, you'll have to pay. or, you could try calling up a random person from Japan who has a Skype account but that would just be...weird.

Hey I'm bumping this to inform everyone that you can call anywhere in the Canada and The United States for free (atleast if you live in Canada and the United States)Land lines and cellphones. Any more info if other countries are secretly free as well. yeah this is old new, but not everyone knows it, or knows what skype is. Here's a suggestion. (I'll edit this post in a few seconds for suggestion)

doesn't skype also let you chat, kinda like msn? i dl'ed and used skype for a while, but couldn't talk to people, since i didn't have a mic on my comp. still don't... but i was able to do chat with others
